Harlan Ellison: "The Silver Corridor," "Bright Eyes," and "Are You Listening?"

In my last blog post I mentioned that I own a signed paperback copy of Harlan Ellison's Alone Against Tomorrow. Over ten years ago, at a Half Price Books location in Iowa or Ohio, I paid just two dollars for the volume, a 1979 Fifth Printing. Let's look at the contents page and figure out which stories I haven't read yet and then read three of them. And don't fret, I will wash the Ovaltine off my hands before I handle this holy relic. Read along in your own copy (you got one, right?) or at the internet archive if your copy is on a high shelf or under your sleeping cat or supporting a short table leg or something."I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" and the evil clock man story I read before I started this blog. "The Discarded," "Deeper Than the Darkness" and "All the Sounds of Fear" I read in October 2024, "Life Hutch" in September 2024. "The Time of the Eye" I read in 2022. "Blind Lightning" I read in 2019. I think maybe that is it, leaving a lot of stories in this book I haven't read…
